    Summary

    “Your favourite song!” Sherlock burst out, in an accusing tone, as John rolled him sideways to free his unslung arm from his coat, tugged it out from under him and let him roll onto his back.

    “You wouldn’t know it,” John half-smirked.

    He’s tried not to let it affect his life, but as any Lefty knows, that’s almost impossible.

    Summary

    For the-girl-with-the-owlhat as part of the 2014 Valentine’s Day johnlockchallenges exchange.

    The prompt was: "To the rest of the world, it doesn’t look like John or Sherlock are celebrating Valentine’s Day- of course, most people just aren’t looking hard enough. They’re celebrating. Just in their own way."

    I drew inspiration from how Sherlock went about planning his Best Man's speech and the Stag Do to decide how exactly these two adorkable boys would show sentiment to one another. John and Sherlock are being super romantic in their own way. Who cares if outside looking in you can't see it?

    Summary

    John cannot understand why Sherlock even wants to look at him after the horrible way he acted, and his guilt is destroying him. Why doesn’t Sherlock snap at him, scream at him, treat him the way he deserves?

    Summary

    "When I first met John Watson, I had just moved to Baker Street and he had been home from Afghanistan nearly six months. We'd both been evicted about the same time: I for a disagreement with my landlord about chemical experiments and he for a plain and simple lack of cash. My brother had picked up the pieces for me; his had not."

    In which Watson turns to prostitution after his return from Afghanistan, like plenty of other British soldiers, but of course Holmes finds him anyway.

    "A bit of scarlet" is late 19th/early 20th century homosexual slang for sex with a soldier. OBVIOUSLY.

    Love is so short, but forgetting is so long - Pablo Neruda

    Of all the places to run into his ex, it had to be at a Tesco's when he's wearing his bloody pyjamas. At three in the fucking morning.

    Summary

    Sherlock does his best to make John happy when John comes back to 221B with his new baby after the events of Season 3, but Sherlock has a track record of getting things wrong in this area. This story is an exploration of their gradual shift from friends to lovers, told from Sherlock's perspective, full of a lot of pining and lack of emotional awareness. (But don't worry; I love a happy ending.)

    Summary

    In a world where Omegas are the property of the elite Alphas, locked away and treasured by those wealthy enough to buy them, John never questioned his flatmate's secondary gender. Sherlock Holmes was an Alpha through-and through.

    Wasn't he?

    A chance discovery turns the world on its head, and John is left grappling to come to terms with Sherlock's past as events conspire to threaten their future.

    “Sherlock, are you and Daddy married?” John heard Rosie say from the other room.

    “No,” Sherlock said, shortly followed by, “Want to look at pictures of the inside of eyeballs?”

    Summary

    For a prompt: When Sherlock first lays eyes on John, it's love at first sight. Unfortunately, Sherlock is sort of a two-year-old about emotions, and gets clumsy, tongue-tied and stupid every time he tries to speak to John. As everyone goes on about how brilliant Sherlock is, John is left wondering if they're talking about the same Sherlock Holmes. Because the Sherlock he knows is barely capable of stringing together a coherent sentence.

    Summary

    What happened while Mary was away searching for Ajay? Sherlock must have expected her to run - they did trace the memory stick, after all. He didn't, however, expect John to show up on his doorstep in the aftermath. Then again, the army doctor always has been the wild card.
